Start up

The chewing gum is spit in the bin.

The headphones and phones have been put away.

Your material is being checked.

Je hebt een voorbeeld gezien van de Passive Voice.
Wat valt op aan deze vorm?

Gebruik

De Passive Voice gebruik je wanneer je extra focus wil leggen op wat gedaan wordt, in plaats van wie het doet. Bijvoorbeeld omdat wie het doet niet belangrijk is (1), of omdat je het niet wilt vertellen (2):

1. The door was closed. 

2. My homework was done. 

      (by my brother, but I'm going to pretend I did it myself)

Regel 1

In de basis ga je van wie-doet-wat naar wat-gedaan door-wie:

My alarm woke me up -->  I  was woken up by my alarm

   - Dit doe je door een vorm van to be toe te voegen,
      en het oude ww in de voltooide vorm te zetten. 

   - Als je benoemd wie het doet, moet je er "by" voor zetten. 

   - Belangrijk! Voornaamwoorden veranderen van vorm.

Regel 2

Let op! De to be-vorm is afhankelijk van de tijd in de actieve zin. 

present simple                                         past simple

I walk the dog.                                           I bought groceries yesterday.

The dog is walked by me.                    Groceries were bought by me
                                                                         yesterday.

dus: present simple van to be           dus: past simple van to be

           + voltooid deelwoord                           + voltooid deelwoord  

Regel 3

present continuous                       past continuous

I am petting the cat                        The radio was broadcasting  

The cat is being pet.                       music.

                                                                 Music was being broadcast. 

dus: pr. cont. van to be                  dus: pa. cont. van to be

          + voltooid deelwoord                     + voltooid deelwoord  

Regel 4

present perfect                       

My favorite author has written a new book.

A new book has been written by my favorite author.

dus: present perfect van to be + voltooid deelwoord  

Let op! De passive pr. perfect heeft dus 2 voltooid deelwoorden.
